Available now from HDL Works is version 1.2 of HDL Companion, the HDL analysis, navigation and editing environment.

HDL Companion is known for its extensive capability to provide the user with numerous design details by extracting these automatically from the design sources when a design directory is dragged into the global window of HDL Companion.

VHDL, Verilog and mixed language designs are supported.

Synthesis and simulation tool interfaces are builtin, optimising the user's edit-compile-debug cycle.

Next to many smaller improvements in performance and ease-of-use, major new features are focused on documentation generation and IP usage.

HTML generation for any HDL design is now performed in seconds, providing the user an HTML version of the code to browse through the design hierarchy, view all objects and colour coded source code.

This greatly enhances quick generation of detailed documentation for any HDL design.

External IP (including company legacy code and vendor libraries from Actel, Altera, Xilinx and others) can now be easily specified.
